Some of John's famous feats:

- Tore 50 full packs of poker cards in half in 58 seconds on Regis and Kathie Lee
- Ripley's Museums have some of John's scrollwork and bonsais
- World Record holder for bending 520 - 60 penny nails, in one hour and forty two minutes
- John recently set a new world record by bending a 20 foot 1/2" diameter steel bar in a small suitcase in 29 seconds
John's site, Samsonscroll.com, offers his books on grip work and kettlebell training, as well as his beautiful bent metal sculptures. He also does Christian outreach and hand strength seminars.
